[rt-users] RT 3.6.0 Custom Field Validation

[Nick Metrowsky]

Hi Todd,

Thank you for writing. So, based upon you message, the validation is
defined on a custom field by custom field basis. I sort of thought so,
as I could not find an option to set this up globally. Having a global
configuration capability may become a useful feature in the future, as
folks may want to choose from a library of validations; as opposed to
setting up validations on a field by field basis.

Take care!

Nick

Nick,

It's a combo box, so if the validation you want doesn't exists you
can just type it in. The syntaz is Perl regular expression syntax,
so just refer to your favorite perl manual.

This is just from observation. I have used it much yet.
